Excerpt from Psychology Applied to Legal Evidence and Other Constructions of Law: Second Edition Revised and Re-Written in Parts The chief alterations in this edition are the insertion of a new chapter on some specific defects of the law, with examples in the Appendices, which are also new, and the omission of the chapter containing a psychological examination of Ameer AH and Woodroffe's edition of the Indian Evidence Act. Additions have also been made to all the chapters except that on Causation which is unaltered. One of the critics of the First Edition drew attention to Stern's work 'Beitrage Zür Psychologie der Aussage, ' the existence of which was unknown to the author at the time the first edition of this book was published. When revising it for the second edition every effort was made to obtain a translation of the above work, but it appears that it has not been rendered into English. As the author is unacquainted with German, he has been compelled to relinquish the idea of consulting that treatise or any other work of the author quoted. He has, however, utilised and quoted freely from Professor Münsterberg's work 'Psychology and Crime' which appeared since the first edition of the present work.
